4. We know, that x% equals 637.09 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=637.09.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4514.44
2) x%=637.09
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=4514.44/637.09
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 637.09 is what percent of 4514.44
